Anuradha is the seventeenth nakshatra, in the middle of Scorpio. It carries friendship and devotion — loyalty that succeeds in foreign places, and the discipline that keeps love organised. People shaped by it tend to be warm and friendly, with a gift for bringing opposing sides into harmony — tough enough to build and lead an organisation, yet tender enough at heart to be followed gladly, and often most successful through travel and life far from home. The lotus is its symbol: devotion that blooms even from muddy water.
Presided over by Mitra, god of friendship and alliances, with the lotus as its symbol — blooming in muddy water. Its Vimshottari lord is Shani.
— Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra daśā adhyāya (Vimśottarī lords)
Span 3°20′–16°40′ Vrishchika; lord Saturn in Mars's sign — devotion under discipline, classically favourable for group leadership and success away from the birthplace. The Moon's debilitation degree (3° Vrishchika) borders its start.
